It’s been a while since I blogged about food but if truth be told I’m eating out less now than I used to. Here are some photos from a 10-course lunch at Momofuku Seiobo. The much-anticipated pork bun did not blow me away at all, though its all too familiar flavours reminded me of the ones I used to have as a kid. It was perfectly made of course, but kind of left me wondering what the fuss is all about. The mains of mulloway with smoked roe and pork neck with pear were stellar, as was the rather odd but good piccalilli and rye dessert.. and of course who can not possibly like a caramelised pork fat donut!?

This outfit was something I threw together for lunch and then I realised that these pants have never made an appearance on my blog. They are past season Stylestalker and I love them to bits. I’m not particularly big on florals but this rose print on black hits all the right notes.. what do you think?

I bought this faux fur jacket a few months ago at the ASOS sale and this is the first time it’s been cold enough to wear it out. And coincidentally two things happened to me - 1) I spilled takeaway coffee on myself this morning for the first time ever (Murphy’s Law much?); 2) Some random stranger in Central Station decided to stroke my jacket/arm on my way home (???) which completely freaked me out so yeah, two ways this jacket has contributed to my day. I guess I should look forward to having a few adventures with it!

A dimsum lunch in Chinatown is probably one of my favourite things to do on lazy weekends here, stereotypical or not :) I wore this out on the weekend when it was actually warm enough to flash some skin. The sleek lines of this jacket goes with pretty much everything in my closet, such a good purchase! Hope you’re having a great start to the week :)

It’s increasingly hard not to dress in all-black so I broke up an all-black work day outfit with a denim shirt and threw a curb chain necklace and chunky rings (not shown) to dress it down. I’m lucky that as a designer I get to pretty much dress any way I want to, so this buttery-soft leather blazer is as close as I get to corporate dress these days..
Really looking forward to the weekend! x
